How to lock down admin directories?

I've been asked to restrict access to a site Admin directory because the site has been hacked pretty regularly. There is currently a separate web login to get to Admin, but I'm being asked if I can lock down that directory based on the NETWORK DOMAIN to endure only internal users can get to it.

Is this more of an IIS issue, or is this something that can be done in CF?

    Well, IIS is a great way to do stuff like this. Install the
    Administrator on an IIS website and then use the Directory Security
    features of that site to restrict what IP addresses that can be allowed
    to view it.

    Since it isn't the root directory, how do I do that? Set up a virtual directory on IIS?
